A Little Bit of Love
Thought I'd make a card today that wasn't themed Easter or St. Patrick's Day and just show a bit of LOVE! A couple of years ago a friend of mine gave me a small box that was filled with stuff that belonged to her mom - buttons, charms, old coins, and looks like some old pieces of jewelry. This heart was in the box. I mounted it on a square of burlap and added the ribbon and "I Love You" sentiment. A quick and easy card that I thought I'd give the hubs - so he could give the heart back to me with a chain on it! LOL!

Lovely card and well thought out! Great way to give and get a gift!
What a beautiful, but your reason for giving it to hubs is even better. I knew I liked you for your ideas as well as your talent. LOL. That is a very nice charm and you showcased is beautifully. The burlap and the red ribbon really makes it pop off the page. The simple layout is perfect because if you had anymore on the card I think the beauty of this charm would have been lost. I LOVE this one, Lynn.
So elegant and lovely, Lynn .. What a treasure and a lovely idea to add the heart treasure to the card :)
This is a lovely card. I am always so impressed with the way you can make CAS cards that aren't "flat." You always add that little something that makes your cards different and delightful.
This is gorgeous and so striking! Love the simple burlap behind the beautiful heart. Hope your hubby gets the hint and returns it ready to wear.
I love this Lynn,the heart is beautiful

Very neat Lynn! That heart is awesome!!!
Now.....hopefully your hubs will get the hint!! :)
Fantastic texture from the burlap and the charm! This is a gorgeous combination of rustic and elegant! Thanks so much for playing along with us at CAS(E) This Sketch this week!
Love, love, love this card.
love this card Lynn and creative thinking to give to dh so he can give you a chain to wear it
Oh, this is gorgeous Lynn!! I love that beautiful heart charm and the touch of burlap!
Hugs, Tammy
That's some good thinking, Lynn, but I hope you told him what he's supposed to do with the heart! MY DH wouldn't think to put it on a chain in a million years! LOL, everything needs to be written out for him! It sure makes a pretty card!
This is so beautiful Lynn. I love the heart charm and the design of your card.

Heh Heh....you are one crafty girl in more ways than one I see :) I heard of gifts with strings attached, but chains? Well that's a first for me, and I like it :)
Seriously, this is one great CAS card, and that heart charm really is pretty! Way to showcase it with a piece of burlap!
One fabulous card Lynn, and what a subtle hint for a chain ;-)

What a terrific card! So simple and sweet. Now I'll be digging thru my box of metal stuff and CASEing this idea!
I LOVE this!
Smart lady!!!! Gorgeous card, Lynn and, yes, that heart would look fabulous on a chain.

I just showed this to Ray- he likes it and was surprised that other people give their husbands cards- and want the card- or parts of it back!!! Love the card AND the heart- it will look very pretty on a chain!
Oh I LOVE this... this is so me. Hope you get the chain... Lol.
The charm is so sweet. And that reminds me I have something like this too so thanks for the inspiration. Except that I can never expect anything from hubby...lol. I will have to go and buy my own chain. Lol.
The burlap and red ribbon look swell.
How cool to combine the informality of burlap with a fancy charm.
Love,
M
This is just so precious, Lynn. Hope you get your wish!
What a great card and a terrific idea for getting the heart back as a pendant, Lynn. You're just too clever! Love the contrast of the fancy silver heart and the rough burlap. Wonderful CAS. :-D
OH Jimlynn, what a beautiful design.
Super sweet, Lynn!!
Aww... it's the heart that keeps on giving! LOL! This is the most wonderful CAS card! I love the burlap and charm together!!
What a beautiful CAS design, Lynn....the contrast of the burlap and silver heart looks awesome and I love the addition of the red ribbon!!! Hope it comes back to you with a chain!!!!!
What a beautiful card Lynn and what a lovely romantic gesture too!
oh my gosh, isn't this ♥GORGEOUS♥??! sooooo very elegant and C&S... and then your strategy with the heart is brilliant too!!! i think i should make myself one of these now!!! LOVE it!
So VERY pretty Lynn!! I love the beautiful heart, looks lovely on the burlap ;)
that heart is fantastic! no wonder you want to keep an eye on it ; ) the burlap you chose is just the perfect background for a contrast of color, texture and brilliance! thank you for joining us at CTS ; )
Aren't you the clever one with the heart idea! This is such a simply elegant card, the burlap on white...hard to think of burlap as 'elegant', but it certainly is HERE! You do these minimal layouts so well, and so effectively. TFS
Brilliant card love burlap clean and simple best wishes Lesley x
How did I miss all these cards! I love, love, love this one Lynn... who would have thought a chunk of burlap would be elegant but it is! The charm is perfect with the little red ribbon and sentiment. Love it!
This is gorgeous and so cool looking!
OMGoodness Lynn!! I LOVE this!!! Just CAS and Absolutely FABULOUS!! 8-)
Hugs & Happy Easter Wishes!
